HOW TO BUILD A NESTING BOX

[@viktoriam6304]

Greetings from Bosnia. You are best at making all for rabbits. I learn from you. I love bunnies as pets and would not eat them. But i make a house for my bunny and learn all from videos. Very informative videos, clear speech good explination and natural videos. I love how crafty you are and make all by yourself. You are such a positive man and nice person and you really care about your family and animals. Great video. Make more diy videos.

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

I’m so glad you like the videos. Stay tuned for more DIY videos…

Thank you so much for the plans! You are helping out so many people during this interesting time.

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

You're very welcome!

[@8EACRESHOMESTEAD]

Thank you for helping us navigate a great nesting box! We've got our oldest son on the mission. Once again, great info!

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

Thanks for watching -best of luck to your son and the build!

[@offgridwithmarty]

My first do is ready to Kindle in two weeks and I was going to look today to see if I can find nesting box videos so I knew what size to make. Excellent timing. Love your Channel

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

I’m so glad I uploaded it this morning. Best of luck with your build!

[@RogueSmithersCouple]

Love the Ryobi demo... Confirmed I do want the Brad nailer and jig saw. Already have the skill saw and MANY more of the 18+ line with zero complaints

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

Ryobi tools are the whip! More folks should give them a chance. Thanks for watching!

[@offgridwithmarty]

Free video great timing Bobby

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

You bet! Thanks for watching!

What’s the point of the wire bottom. If you’re already putting it on a wire floor. That’s the same dimensions?

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

So you can move the litter if needed this helps keep them contained and none of their little hocks get stuck and crushed under the nest framing

[@paddysparlor]

We just had our first batch of kits. Pepper, the doe, it’s her first litter. Had 8 kits, and so far no loss. It’s been a very rewarding process this far!

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

That's great. Congrats.Thanks for sharing!

[@kennethstensrud669]

An easy and nice box, but might I suggest stapling the netting on the bottom before putting on the sides and so on.

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

You could but it nice to remove the cage floor bottom when cleaning out

[@ShapeurName0123]

I m from pakistan . I've seen many video about making nestbox but ur is best.

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

thanks for watching. I appreciate that!

[@deborahrutherford5244]

You are the best to learn from thanks for the information.

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

That means a lot! Thanks for watching!

[@alyssa_the_noodle5228]

This is hilarious. I’m literally getting the stuff ready to make scrap wood nest boxes today lol. I may have too many rabbits at the moment 😅

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

It's a common problem. Best of luck with your upcoming litters!

[@juliannedispain1637]

I just found your channel. I have only watched a couple of your videos so far. You have great videos. Great nesting box!

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

Thanks for watching!

[@madinius3511]

Hey great Video! Thanks for that! A question: How would you handle very large litters, say 15 or 16 kits? Would you just let nature take its place or would you intervene? Thanks!

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

I would see if mama could handle it Id only Intervine if I started to see some skinny kits I would then swap out the fat ones for the skinny ones to make sure they get nursed-You can always foster the kits if she just weaned her kits she should still except them

[@zone4garlicfarm]

Is plywood the best material to use? I would be concerned about the glue if the mother chews the box.Would pine boards be better for the rabbits? Or maybe hardwood boards?

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

Your rabbit will be fine with both A little bit of chewing isn't gonna hurt them it's good to provide softwood for them to chew on as well as hay everyday so they have something else to chew on

[@Tellin08]

What's the electric saw that you use to cut wood for your nesting box?

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

Hey Bobby , I have been having trouble finding a big NZ buck . I used to have one but he died . I have two now that are great breeders but they are small . I am not happy with the size of my grow outs . How should I go about finding a BIG BUCK . Your suggestions are appreciated . Thanks

Join a Facebook Rabbit group and post that you’re looking for breeders in your area several people should jump at the opportunity to sell their rabbits to you. here’s a video to help you find your rabbits kzbin.info/www/bejne/fGSqqoeketJ9mJo

[@ByoKora775]

I know this is for a rabbit/bunny but could you use it for a cat too? or would you need or do something else

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

I couldn't tell you for sure. Never tried it. I don't own a cat.

[@scubahealer]

Thanks. Thats awesome!

Hey! New to ur channel, and I'm really considering building a large rabbit farm, wondering how large itd need to be to inhabit about a maximum of 20-30, also wondering what's the best way to make sure I can harvest manure for easy pick up and keeping there living areas clean and considering about purchasing 5 male and 5 females to begin mating, wanting them to be able to exercise plenty but also go back to there nest

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

If you use KZbin, search engine and type "the rabbitry center _______and put the topic you're searching after it you will find our video covering that topic. -Rabbit Space -Manure-Thanks for watching!

[@aprilmendenhall4317]

Would this sized box work for a New Zealand?

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

Yes it's made specifically for a New Zealand

[@np3farmhouse942]

How long after getting you rabbits should you wait to breed? I got my male on Saturday and my females yesterday and the girls don’t want anything so do with him.

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

You should give them a day to adjust. If they don't lift try again the next day Continue to check her vent to make sure she's ready!

[@np3farmhouse942]

@@TheRabbitryCenter Thanks! I checked both girls and they are nice and pink! just not lifting. I will give them more time to adjust! love your videos! very helpful getting me started!

So glad to hear that. Here's a video that shares some things you could try kzbin.info/www/bejne/p32nZ6WDqMt2Y5o

[@np3farmhouse942]

@@TheRabbitryCenter I’ve watch it so many times 🤣 just found out apparently her litter mate who they thought was a female is a male so she might actually be pregnant already! They turn a year old in a month and haven’t bred yet. Is that normal?

[@eeveelee5466]

Hi! I've been watching so many of your videos and its incredibly helpful thankyou so much! I have a question as last night I watched the nesting box with the low front video from a year ago and was setting up to build them and now I have seen this one with all high sides, just wondering which one you recommend at this current time as we have 4 pregnant does and wanting to make sure we get it right from the start ( hence watching all the vids! ) :)

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

Nesting boxes will work. The nesting box that has the open front is for 10-14 days old kits hopping out of the nesting box. We use them specifically for moving our kits out of the kindling totes. Thanks for asking and best of luck with your litters!

[@eeveelee5466]

@@TheRabbitryCenter This particular one or the one from a year ago video with the low front? Just a little confused which one you use and recommend now you've trialled both ☺️ thankyou for replying!

You're very welcome!

[@faisal_nisar]

I think the cage wire should be fit from the outside so that it won't harm the kitts or the doe

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

Cage wire doesn't hurt kits it helps with ventilation In the winter time it's covered with shavings and straw

[@faisal_nisar]

@@TheRabbitryCenter i am concerned about the edges

[@jameslbishop]

I have this California doe that is running around in circles I keep trying to bite me when I put my hand in there to put hay.? I have had her for 2 weeks what in the world is wrong with her

[@TheRabbitryCenter]

Is she defending her litter?
